I’d be in for June
I would be down! On the old site, I remember often opting out of joining or claiming near the end of the month because it was such a bell curve of claims, plus keeping track of where to post and who to tell with overlapping swaps from 2 months was a challenge. But if it can be truly ongoing in one swap but with a refresh of some kind each month, that would be sweet. Even if it was like the old way, I’d probably keep joining too.
It’ll be a new claims thread & swap sign-up for each month, but the combined gallery thread should decrease the “wait, what month was that from??” confusion.
So, this looks like it’s worth opening a new claims thread for June, then.
(Join us, @madebyBeaG ! It’s probably the easiest possible swap to do internationally!)
I’d be in!
Yes, I’d be interested too I find that some months I’ve been bit by the creative bug and go crazy with claims but then other months I slow down… This month has been off for me because my free time has been nearly nonexistent But I’d love to have the opportunity to play And let me know if you ever need/want a break organizing! (and I’m sure there are others that could organize as well if needed )
Swaps were what brought me here, and I’m doing my best to earn all necessary street cred in my first month so I can hit the ground running once able. I’ll be a late-joiner, so at least one claim will happen in the last half of June.
Thanks for asking! I wish.
I just decided to participate in the Happy Mail give away, for which I will finally have to start crafting again, and I’m busy with my creative writing and my Blog.
(Because of poor health I’ve only got a couple of active hours in a day.)
But who knows, perhaps in the future?
School will be out and I will have more time to craft, so yes, yes, yes! @gozer, you’re the best!
I received a card from @Lynx! She combined my bird theme and black and white drawing to come up with this penguins as American Gothic card! It’s wonderful! Thank you!
I received two beautiful cards from Gozer for my girls with flowing hair theme. They are gorgeous little artworks. Thank you so much!
The gothic penguins are hysterical!
And I love @gozer’s art style! Everything she does is so pretty!
They’re lovely!
Received from @bluebird yesterday. She chose my England theme and made me a Union Jack flag. It’s so neat!
Is that a colorblindness-friendly Union Jack? Cool!
I don’t know…? I don’t think so. I just made a traditional one based of images I found online. It’s red, white and blue like normal, the lighting in the photo may have altered the colors some.
Here’s a pic of the card I took before sending so you can see the colors.
Yeah, sorry, I take notoriously crappy pictures The colors look fine to me.
That’s fascinating! My computer is showing the first image as very clearly orange & purple. (Maybe it’s like that dress meme, tho…)
Anyway, The June swap is up: Ongoing ATC swap June 2021 so feel free to make a last claim for May, or go ahead & send in your sign-ups for June!
It’s probably just the indoor lights causing the color cast. They tend to make pics a little more yellowish. I use a window and sunlight to take pics if possible as it tends to make the colors more accurate.
OK, I finished my 3 outstanding claims, and am ready for the next round! Whee!
…so is anyone going to start off June with a claim?
(is my list too boring, or are we still catching up after the long weekend?)
